< Zechariah 6 >

1 And again I lifted up my eyes and saw four chariots coming out from between two mountains—mountains of bronze.
Bout kamoung navah, rahum hoi sak e rangleng pali touh mon rahak hoi a tâco e ka hmu.
2 The first chariot had red horses, the second black horses,
Hmaloe e rangleng dawk ka paling e marang, apâhni e rangleng dawk ka tamang e marang,
3 the third white horses, and the fourth dappled horses—all of them strong.
Apâthum e rangleng dawk ka pangaw e marang, apalinae rangleng dawk thakasai ni teh tarakcak e marangnaw sut kaw e lah ao.
4 So I inquired of the angel who was speaking with me, “What are these, my lord?”
Ka bawipa, hote ranglengnaw hah bangtelamaw telah kai hoi ka pato roi e kalvantami koe ka pacei navah,
5 And the angel told me, “These are the four spirits of heaven, going forth from their station before the Lord of all the earth.
Kalvantami ni hote ranglengnaw teh talai van pueng ka uk e Bawi e hmalah kangduenae koehoi ka tâcawt e kalvan e kahlî pali touh doeh a ti.
6 The one with the black horses is going toward the land of the north, the one with the white horses toward the west, and the one with the dappled horses toward the south.”
Marang katamangnaw teh atunglae ram lah a cei awh, ka pangaw pueng teh ka tamangnaw e hnuk a kâbang awh, ka tarakcaknaw teh akalae ram lah a cei awh, a ti.
7 As the strong horses went out, they were eager to go and patrol the earth; and the LORD said, “Go and patrol the earth.” So they patrolled the earth.
Athakasai e marangnaw a tâco awh teh, talai van atunglah, akalah a kâhei awh nahanlah a tha a la awh. Kalvantami ni hai cet awh nateh talai atunglah, akalah kâhei awh, telah atipouh e patetlah, ahnimouh teh talai van atunglah, akalah a kâhei awh.
8 Then the LORD summoned me and said, “Behold, those going to the land of the north have given rest to My Spirit in the land of the north.”
Kalvantami ni kai na kaw teh khenhaw! atunglah ka cet e marangnaw ni kalungkhueknae teh atunglae ram dawk a kamtue sak awh toe.
9 The word of the LORD also came to me, saying,
BAWIPA e lawk kai koe bout ka tho e teh,
10 “Take an offering from the exiles—from Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah, who have arrived from Babylon—and go that same day to the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah.
hmaloe a man awh e teh atu Babilon kho hoi ka tho e Heldai phun, Tobiah phun hoi Jedaiah phun a tangawn a kaw teh, hnin touh dawk hoi Zephaniah e capa Josiah im vah a ceikhai teh,
11 Take silver and gold, make an ornate crown, and set it on the head of the high priest, Joshua son of Jehozadak.
suingunnaw a la awh teh bawilukhungnaw lah a sak awh hnukkhu, Jehozadak capa Joshua, vaihma kacue e a lû dawk a kâmuk sak haw.
12 And you are to tell him that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Here is a man whose name is the Branch, and He will branch out from His place and build the temple of the LORD.
Ransahu BAWIPA e kâlawk ahni koe patuen dei pouh hane teh, a cakang telah a min a phung e hah khenhaw! amamae kho hmuen koe ka pâw e tami ni BAWIPA e bawkim a sak han.
13 Yes, He will build the temple of the LORD; He will be clothed in splendor and will sit on His throne and rule. And He will be a priest on His throne, and there will be peaceful counsel between the two.’
BAWIPA e bawkim a sak torei teh bawilennae hoi a bawitungkhung dawk a tahung vaiteh a uk han. A tungkhung dawk vaihma lahai awm vaiteh, ahnimouh roi teh kâhuikonae lawkkam a sak roi han.
14 The crown will reside in the temple of the LORD as a memorial to Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and the gracious son of Zephaniah.
Hote bawilukhungnaw teh Helem, Tobiah, Jedaiah hoi Zephaniah capa Hennaw hanlah BAWIPA e bawkim dawkvah pahnim hoeh nahanlah ao han.
15 Even those far away will come and build the temple of the LORD, and you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent Me to you. This will happen if you diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God.”
Ahlanae koehoi hai tho awh vaiteh BAWIPA e bawkim hah a sak awh han. Ransahu BAWIPA ni kai teh nangmouh koe na patoun e hah na panue awh han. Nangmouh ni na BAWIPA, Cathut e a kâlawk hah kahawicalah na ngai a bawi pawiteh, hettelah na o awh han a ti.
